In this chapter, I suggest we not lose sight of the humanistic and ecological essence of 3S pedagogy-the ways in which we live with one another as interconnected parts of the world. In the spirit of this interdependence, picture educational institutions advancing liberal arts breadth as they prepare students to be integrated thinkers, creative problem solvers, trans-disciplinary/trans-cultural team builders, empathetic listeners, and purposeful leaders. Picture the co-enactment of democratic humanism in our schools as all curriculum stakeholders-teachers, administrative staff, students, parents, and community members-embrace and enact deep, meaningful learning experiences. Picture learning environments where educators challenge themselves and their students to cultivate ways of life that are grounded in ecological cosmopolitanism. © 2015 Taylor & Francis.
